FOCUS ON ME

Focus on Me
When you're weary, you see.
Focus on Me
For a life full and free.

Focus on Me
When troubles abound.
Focus on Me
My promises are sound.

Focus on Me
When life seems a test
Focus on Me
I know what is best.

Focus on me
When filled with great sorrow.
Focus on me
For a better tomorrow!

SELF-CONTROL

Self-control
Of heart and mind
When you meditate
And when it's hard to be kind.

Self-control
Is a discipline we need
Be in God's Word
His message heed.

Self-control
When temptation rise
Satan wants each of us
For his prize.

Self-control
When filled with anger
Make Jesus keeper to your heart
To stay out of danger..

Self-control
Make a commitment today
To be thankful to God
And remember to pray!

There is no one more "trusting" than a little child!

TRUSTING

Trusting...
In an answer to prayer.
Trusting...
That God is really there.

Trusting...
That for me He has a plan.
Trusting...
I don't have to understand.

Trusting...
When I can't see my way.
Trusting...
He's with me today.

Trusting..
God's silence, you see.
Trusting...
That He will always love me!

To restore our passion... we need to remember God is our Rock and and
our Redeemer!

RESTORE YOUR PASSION

Restore your passion
When it begins to wane
When pressure and disappointment
Becomes your refrain.

Restore your passion
Meet the day with prayer
Whatever goes before you
Believe that God is there.

Restore your passion
Make His Word your guide
Trust His control
And He will with you abide.

Restore your passion
Do something that you love
With enthusiasm and excitement
It will bring blessings from above!

ROCK BOTTOM

Rock bottom
Is not the end,
God will lift you up.
He wants to be your friend.

Rock botom
Filled with fear?
Even in darkness
God will be near.

Rock bottom
At the end of your rope?
Call out to God,
He's your only hope.

Rock bottom
Just hanging by a thread?
God whispers, "remember Me,
There's nothing to dread."

Rock bottom
In your deepest sorrow
God's promises are true
There's a better tomorrow!

CHOOSE HIS PEACE

Choose  His peace
In a world that's  gone astray.
Chose His Peace
There's no other way.

Choose His peace
For there's no peace in things.
Choose His peace
For the comfort thatt it brings.

Choose His peace
With its tranquility.
Choose His Peace
For He does love thee.

Choose His peace
His Victory has been won.
Choose His Peace
Jesus Christ, God's Son.

THE PURPOSE FOR BROKENNESS

The purpose for brokenness
In thought or deed
Is God getting your attention
To point out your need.

The purpose for brokenness
Is for your dependance on God
You need Him, you see
In every step that you trod

The purpose for brokenness
Is to mold you, the clay
To make you more like Jesus
Today than yesterday.

The purpose for brokenness
When you fall apart
Give God the pieces
And He'll mend your heart!

ETERNAL YIELD

Eternal yield
Renew my mind
Give me patience and gentleness
And make me kind.

Eternal Yield
As I spend time in prayer
Help me believe that You answer
Help me know that You care.

Eternal yield
Even though no change I see
Help me to believe
You can change the world and me.

Eternal yield
Direct my path, You see
I want my footsteps to lead home
And loved ones to follow me!

CHRIST HAS SET US FREE

Christ has set us free
In His care and love
And the blessing that are ours
Flows down from heaven above.

Christ has set us free
From the regrets of yesterday
And in His tender care
We can face today.

Christ has set us free
From troubles everywhere
But He wants us to know
That He is always there.

Christ has set us free
His forgiveness is complete
His peace is with us now
And when we are asleep.

WIN THE WAR

Win the war
Over impatience and pride
Know for sure
Jesus walks by your side.

Win the war
Over fear and regret
Because you must know
God's not through with you yet.

Win the war
Forgive yourself, you see
For on the old rugged cross
Christ forgave thee.

Win the war
Over feelings of defeat
Remember you have a Mighty God
And all your needs He will meet!

WORTH OF YOUR PRAISE

Worry of your praise
Is God, you see,
He created the beauty of this world
And He created thee.

Worthy of your praise
Jesus Christ is He,
He went to the cross
To make Salvation free.

Worthy of your praise
The Spirit, that guides you in all things
And dwells in your heart
With the many blessings that He brings.

Worthy of your praise
Is the Godhead Three
That knows all your troubles
And cares so much for thee!

Get rid of this danger.

WHEN YOU MEDITATE UPON THE LORD.

When your meditate upon the Lord
You'll see life from a different perspective
Worry will lose its grip
When your heart is receptive.

When you meditate upon the Lord
And approach his throne of grace
Let Him into your life
Let Him set the pace.

When you meditate upon the Lord
He gives extra strength to you
And whatever tomorrow brings
He will see you through.

When you meditate upon the Lord
Peace upon you will rest
With a fresh out-look on life
You will be your best!

WHAT TO ASK FOR WHEN YOU PRAY

What to ask for when you pray
Ask His will be done
He created you
He knows your needs each one.

What to ask for when you pray
The Holy Spirit knows what to say
He is your advocate
When you pray.

What to ask for when you pray
His guidance, mercy and His grace
Foe each and every trial
That you must face.

What to ask for when you pray
Health and welfare of family and friends
And His pease and protection
When the day ends!
